Putting it here since this is a high traffic part of the forum.

No entry to range for fire investigation.

I was told an idiot was shooting tracers and started a fire on the main range..

Check the wegc site to be sure it's open if you planned on going mon/tues.

I "almost" got to the gate when a guy leaving told me it was closed from the fire- He told me it was a guy with tracers- but I didnt get on the range proper and ask an RO.

If it was tracers, I hope they know who it was... When that bill from the firefighters comes in, they know who to hand it to.....

___UPDATE___ this AM- (Mon) back ranges open- main range closed for the day.

Is there another fire in or near the range? Saw something on the tv in one of the clinics when I was there... they were talking about the rifle range....

There is one called the Gobbler fire nearby, it is north about 15 miles or so.
